Open, Close or Modify a Single Schedule Day

The Edit Background feature allows you to modify the schedule for a single day. You can use it to open or close a day, adjust appointment columns, change the schedule hours, or apply a different schedule template for that specific date.

Important:

• You cannot close a day that contains existing appointments. Reschedule or remove all appointments before attempting to close the day.

• Changes made using Edit Background apply only to the selected day. They do not create or update a schedule template and cannot be reused for future dates. If you want the changes to be available again, update the schedule template in Tops Ortho>Practice Set-up>Calendar>Schedule Templates.

Open a previously closed day:

Go to Day > Appointment Book.
Click the mosiac tile icon to edit the background.
Type your password and click OK.
Click within the Template field.

Either select a template to apply from the Template dropdown menu or simply click the radio button to Open the day.

If no additional modifications are needed to the schedule template or the open and close times of the day, then click the mosaic tile icon to stop editing. Note: The day is now viewable in your appointment book.
